    Hello! Yeah I've wanted to read that for a long time, so I should probably just go to the library already.
    But we miss you! Class is well...different now. We're mostly just on our own haha. Not really sure about this paper on Lear? But I'm sure I will figure it out. How is the baby girl! And I thought we talked about the whole.. girl with a boy name thing... just kidding it's very cute. Anyhoo i hope you are well and come visit!

    Haha Yeah...crazy colorguard!

    Speech is okay...I'm more of a written person though. In normal life I speak randomly and say whatevers on my mind, so when I try to plan what i'm going to say, it just doesnt work. Haha

    How are things with you?

    bravissimo my sister! Another acceptable answer would have been, "then I am the." but on to BUSINESS! I am in two lit. courses now, one with my fiercely liberal and fiercely intelligent professor where we are studying maj. american writers from colonization to 1865. It is great, but I am sure Borghoff would shriek if he found out that our class is reading Howard Zinn's "A People's History of the United States" to discover the social, historical context of our literature. I am also in World Lit. The Empire Writes Back! which is a very dorky title, but then again my professor for that class is one of the biggest literature nerds I have ever encountered. Needless to say, that class is wonderful. We are right now going back over Things Fall Apart and comparing to Heart of Darkness (and of course reading Achebe's essay on Conrad being a "bloody racist.")

    that's all for now!

    Have fun babyizing!
